  1. Four viruses are found in my system. It comes with attachment file. But anti-virus software thrwat the attack at once and deleted the virus. The last time I encountered was last week and it was wicked trojan again. As long as one updates his virus definition of the anti-virus software 90 percent attacks can be easily blocked, in the rare of the rarest case 10% it may be vulnerable - destroying the hard disk, crashing it.
  2. I should say its the their mail which is unique and different from other mails. Gmail stands above the rest of Google tools. Of course search is their bread and butter which cannot be compared to any other tools. Google toolbar is great too but one cannot install properly in mozilla firefox. I like google toolbar at internet explorer because it can easily integrate itself to another buttons and searchs options besides page ranking which is important as well. I like the google news too which can be accessed from google toolbar just a clickaway.
  3. YOu are right since I didn't give you a chance to think about the site which is down for more than three months now. I forgot to tell you if three months time could be considered a temporary down time for any websites. Besides they don't give any information to the ad publishers about the downtime as well.
  4. Once I was a subscriber to clicksor advertisement. I thouht it would be like that of google adsense, but man I was disappointed when most of my content became clickable with clicksor advertisement links. One of my pages was about students' information. When I wrote the word 'student' there was link to it, if you click that link you will land in the clicksor ad. That's like cheating our site visitors. I don't think they will ever visit again such kind of sites in the future. Since I'm no more a subscriber to clicksor, I don't have idea is changes have been made to this effect. Otherwise that ad type was quite annoying. Think about all your content being linked with someone else's site. I feel that like most of the ads policy, ads should be clearly mentioned as ads and according to its appeal people should visit it, not the other way! These days I have seen in some sites that display Clicksor ads like google adsense.... though...
  5. I don't know if any of the members here are subscribed to Adhearus dot com contextual advertisements. Very much like google adsense it used to generate some revenue for my sites and the minimum amount they can give out was pretty less, just USD 20 (twenty) to be precise and I was nearing that amount. Mine was amounting about 18.90 USD. However, suddenly the site is inaccessible with no notice being given out to the publishers of their ads. This seems to be very much unfair. Have anyone experienced the same? What can be done in this case? I'm very disappointed with this ad company.
  6. My category falls in OTHER. It means I have none of the above as well as I have none too. hehe. In my country those stuffs are yet to make inroads which can be bought easily by common man. It's still a bit of luxury stuffs though many friends own such one but many of us don't think of buying as well.Here walkman is still a hit because you get all kinds of cassettes which you can play in walkman. Others have yet to make a proper inroads to customers, ipod, epod may sound good but what is important is what kind of music you can feed in there. However, those stuffs will dominate in the coming days.
  7. That's pretty interesting piece you had written some years ago. Looking back at the past life, including mine I came to know that something never changes.... think about those. hehe. And finally you are trapped in this 17 web. Its good! Keep posting such stuffs.
  8. My favourite sports is football. Think about World cup, European Cup and others like English premier league, and other European countries' leagues. They are just awesome. Next is cricket. The passion for the gentlemen's game can never fade out. I hope more countries will play this game.Third - Tennis. Those famouse seasonal opens are just a hit anywhere.And the list goes on!
  9. Apexgfx dot net site is very impressive. But when I look carefully it looks like the site design is done by section seventy dot com. Anyways the site looks professional. If you fill up it will really look good. Comment on apexgfx dot net: You should cross-check scrolling pictures found in the left menu in mozilla firefox and see if everything is working fine. for now it seems that there is some problem needed to be fixed. Look into it. Secondly the footer message should be properly edited and displayed, including those of copyright. A very important ingredient for any sites. The extension your_root_site/cilver seems to be your own handiwork. This looks awesome too. It seems you are good at graphics. You should finish soon the designing as well as filling up of the content. Comment on apexgfx dot not slash cilver: Logo is a must for any sites. You should use some specific logo for this site too. Some brighter color, if you add will attract visitors more and will be more appealing too. That's it. Thanks.
  10. This is interesting because usually students get persecuted for several types of leave they take from their school. Its the time of change this time. Its refreshing to hear that a teacher is being busted for fake sick leave like this. Teachers were once students too. And it is human nature to be like human not superhuman...hehe. No one cares about others holidays. This is stupid. It could have been the other way round. Because there are many more ways to get leave. Stupid people always get into trouble uselessly..hehe
  11. This isn't a stale news to me. I didn't know earlier that there is customizeable homepage for google. This looks cool. I have just set a new homepage of Google site for my system. I like google news, it is one of the best news source source. The features are great and thank you for sharing.
  12. I feel sorry for Linux, though I really like the way it is doing business. Why I feel sorry is simply because when the interface could have been improved and give a stiff competition to Microsoft it fails so far and its never a choice for the masses around the world. Whereas Microsoft Windows Operating systems be it Windows 2000, ME, XP or the upcoming Longhorn, all look appealing and catchy with eyes as well. I would like to try Linux and have seen what others are using. It doesn't appeal me at all. Graphics aren't good at all. Besides I wonder if all the programmes mostly designed for Microsoft Windows can run in Linux. So, I thought Linux is only for developers.
  13. hm, if you want to learn html you could learn using notepad. When you progress a little bit you could start using frontpage. However you will find that table handling in frontpage isn't great and it doesn't move around easily and its not flexible enough to define properties of cells, tables and others. That's when you will start thinking if Dreamweaver will do the rest needful thing. Since Frontpage is found in Microsoft Windows Operating system it is there automatically if you installed Microsoft Office which is quite natural. Due its easily availability people usually catch up with Frontpage and know a bit about it. But Frontpage is very much inferior to Dreamweaver in my opinion.As an advance user of both Frontpage and Dreamweaver I should say Dreamweaver beats Frontpage in all respect. I wonder why most of the replies here are using Frontpage.
  14. If you don't break any law of the land there is nothing to worry. I don't really care and mind if they are searching my iinformation and got it from somewhere. In any way if they want to get my information they can get it easily. Without any reason I don't think they will be interested to search and enquire about my information. On the other hand one should be careful not to store many important information in his/her computer. A computer can be infected by virus and also destroy files and folders. These days virus are too strong that they infect all types of folders and drives. Even if they come to know all about me it doesn't matter. They are not going to arrest me nor beat me up as long as I do not break the law of the land which they can do if they want any time. So, for me I have no problem. But if I do something illegal according to the law let them arrest me, beat me up according to the law of the land. This way this world would become a better place. In fact we should co-operate with any investigating team to make this world a better place to live in.
  15. I'm more or less like you. I learn backbone html on the web. Pagetutor dot com is the source of my knowing html and its behaviour. I practised alot and it was fun to know the coding one by one. At pagetutor dot com my tutor name is Joe. Joe is the name given to one cartoon in that site. It was fun to be taught by Joe there. The best part was that I was able to experiment and tested as pleased since I learned from the web, many times I just copied and paste and re-write for faster results. I think it will be faster to learn online than to learn through books and to start writing the code in computer. Besides, without enough practise it just got slip out of one's mind quickly.Once I know and understand the behaviour of html code and its functions I never build webpages using notepad. I just use Dreamweaver and if anything happens I rectify the code.I think Dreamweaver is the best software to build webpages. It is very flexible and easy to use even for beginners.
  16. This sig is really cool. I don't mind having a friend who is expert at graphics, the effect would be like the sig you've shown us here. I would rate 9 out of 10. Mostly those who rate sigs or graphics hardly give a good rating this is simply not because the sig isn't good enough but because the one who rates has the tedency to give a rating low. I supposed if we say its very good, it should be 9 out of 10. The only wish in this sig however would be having a longer width and a little lesser height. The color combination is really awesome for the kind of picture that is in the background. Post more of those!
  17. I have contacted Yahoo Customer Care Team through the Customer care support feedback form from Yahoo! Website. I hope they will respond me within few days. If Yahoo! ever suspend my account because of this, it will be a big problem for me because I use my yahoo account extensively and many important files are also stored there. Besides one cannot easily get a signatured-type of email address. Once you lost your prestigious email ID, you don't feel comfortable at all. It could kill your mood too.Last time I've lost one of my Yahoo! email ID. One girl thought that my email ID was his brother's email ID and used to send me a very personal email to me. I replied and informed her that she had sent it to a wrong address. After sometime i couldn't retrieve my yahoo password, it was really frustrating. Till now I haven't got back the email ID as well.
  18. Hi bandinfluence, Your guestbook is simple and good. If you could add some smileys it will be really nice. My only wish is that you change the font family of the website itself which is uniform throughout your site including the guestbook. Its hard to read since the font size is small. If you want to use small size with good clarity Arial font family or Verdana font family are quite good. While editing in this forum you can see, though the font size is small but it is quite clear. If your case the font seems to be times new romans. And sunkist, I think bravenet guestbooks are good but they come with annoying pop-ups and endless advertisements which is annoying to visitors. There are many other guestbooks which are as simple as not using database as well as which uses database. Viper guestbook is quite popular, it is database guestbook. Php based but text database are also available. One can find them all at hotscripts dot com.
  19. I'm receiving the folloing quoted messages from mail@yahoo.com with zip file as an attachment. I am quite disturbed with the message. Could this message be true Or should I ignore it? As far as my knowledge is concerned I have never sent any spam messages using my yahoo mail account. And I hate spam messages too. What if they eventually close down my yahoo email ID!! Does anyone get the same message? The thing is that this mail reaches to my Junk mailbox too. Please give your opinion!
  20. I'm lucky to have none who stays around me whom I could say I hate. However, I just hate and feel pity for those who keeps cheating. Well my country is such one of the countries where cheating is quite prelevant. From Taxi drivers to shop keepers and everyone will try to cheat you, but if you are smart enough you end ed up cheating them. haha. Apart from this, I hate those who makes promises but do not fulfill them. When I come across these kinds of people I really hate. You kept waiting for them but they never returned or don't bother about you. You call them, you message them, but no response. So cold! hehe
  21. You have used well phpBB for forum and coppermine photo gallery for your photo gallery. The templates are great. However I doubt if there is any work from your site because you are using someone's templates in both the cases. You must put some other information as well using your own layout design. Since softwares like phpBB and coppermine photogallery are easily available for free with tons of free templates much appreciation will be there if you have your own templates. However your forum template and the photogallery templates matches well. I feel that you could use the same top banner or design that you use in your front page to your forum as well as your photo gallery. That will give even a more professional look and feel as well. Even from forum as well as photogallery site visitor must be given a chance to visit other parts of the same site. Meaning links must be place for other menu as well. The rest are nice and commendable.
  22. My results are:OS - Debian LinuxFile Extension - .CNigerian Spammer - Peterson Bolinga: Brief Profile: It also says YOu are representing the board of contract committee of the Zambian Ministry of Mining Commission, You have $30, 500,000 to share. You seek my assistance.I hate I clicked and visited the url you've provided here. It wasted my time much. Specially those useless quiz I don't like them but since I had opened up i didn't want to let go. For example, questions like : Favotire African Nation? And in the option, the following countries which are not part of African continent are listed. They are Myanmar (sanwiched between India and Thailand - China), Peru in South America, Lebanon which is in between Israel and Turkey and France, we all know where France is. I hope not to repeat such time wasting spammers' questions.
  23. Well, I am addicted to internet. Specially web designing and playing with open source softwares like php-nuke, postnuke, mambo, xoops and everything. I'm addicted to go online so often and check news happening all over the world. I do this atleast once a day so as to keep myself from what is going on around the world today.I'm also addicted to graphics but never master any of them. Photoshop is where I always end up but never get my desired results. It is good to addict internet than to addict drugs and other things. But its not good to go online for any bad things like seeing unwanted rated sites and other things. For meaningful things I think one must addicted to it including internet. If we are addicted to chatting, it seems its carrying us nowhere of course one has to chat too for important and meaningful and productive ways.Thanks.
  24. The new theme or called it template looks really nice and professional. The previous one was not worse than the current one as well. It was good for its own class as well. Of course the current one has got some kind of class of its own again; afterall the design concepts are different in both the cases.Fast reply, post reply, options and new thread buttons are very conspicous which is a good thing for any users. It is very visible and good too.I feel that Xisto and of course Xisto Corporation is a very innovative company which has a very bright future for its design, biz and other things.
  25. You could use this too. Its from dmoz.org. If you submit in dmoz you don't need to submit separately in google also, google will easily pick up for crawling your site. Dmoz is free too. The url is given below: http://www.dmoz.org/add.html Otherwise the direct url to submit to google for listing in their search engine is as follows: https://www.google.com%2Fwebmasters%2Ftools%2Fsubmit-url%3Fcontinue%3D%2Faddurl&followup=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fwebmasters%2Ftools%2Fsubmit-ur I did a bit of search from google and I got the above two urls for you. I hope they are helpful for the information you are looking for. For me it took 30 days that is a month time for google to index my site when I launched first in 2003. These days I wonder why google index sites so easily. May be they have more competitors who will steal the limelight from them. Just submit your site url and wait for it. If you are desperate for your site to be listed, you could do it by paying it as well. But that may not make sense for the service you are looking for. All the best.!
